chairperson?

13
Can you find out the typical formal expressions in this letter?
14
Dear Professor
I am very happy to recommend an excellent student, Alice Green, to your MBA courses.
During her four years at our university, she attended my classes in Astronomy (天文学). Alice’s strong points include an ability to do several jobs at the same time and produce high quality results. As part of a project, she had developed a software (软件) model of the Leo galaxy (星系).
A formal recommendation letter:
15
And at that time, she was the chairperson of the Students’ Union. But the heavy work did not affect (影响) her studies. If your MBA program looks for clever students with strong abilities, Alice is a good choice.
Finally, let me state my strong recommendation for Alice Green. If you have any question or need more information, I will be happy to talk to you. Please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely yours
Michael Brown

本节课是9A第一单元的学习策略课,同时还要教授综合技能课中Speak up。主要目的是先通过听说这两种手段,锻炼学生评价他人优点的能力;再通过阅读引导学生认识正式和非正式的表达法,帮助学生在不同的语境下得体地使用语言,同时,也为最终的 Main task 的写作做一点铺垫。
说 明
32
在本课教学中,教师要通过讨论和交流,让孩子们学会发掘他人身上的优点,引导她们学会欣赏他人、帮助他人;还要让学生们在对比中学会如何在不同的情境下用恰当的语言表达自己的思想。
